if I'm not mistaken credit card fraud is a federal offense, which means that whoever did this better be long gone from this location, or he's just plain stupid! I'm bettin' this exhaust will be re-sold, so I hope that your parts have serial numbers and that it might somehow lead to the perp.

I totally agree with PTL tho, you guys are a business and doing this juvie shit threatening people on the forums... I don't think you wanna hear what I really wanna say about it right now - just keep in mind that your post probably affected the investigation negatively.

I wish you luck, of course!
It wasnt a threat to this person necessarily. We wanted to let them know that we will take action and that the police was notified. WHen this happened, I called other vendors I know to let them know to beware of the situation. These fraud guys usually hit multiple businesses at once. I have to admit, I am a bit more loose on here as I know so many of you on there and consider many personal friends. There are 3 departments looking into it right now so hopefully we'll find this person.

To those saying RPI's OP is a threat, I completely disagree. They have not made a threat, they are just going after the perp to recover their exhaust/$$$. You people read WAY to much in to things. You owe RPI an apology for your accusations and name calling, they did nothing wrong.

RPI has posted the problem here and just enlisted the help of 30,000 members. I call that a very smart move.


GET 'EM Eloy!!



PS. Gene, do the right thing man.
Alot of you guys are my friends so I have only posted this on this forum. I trust a lot of the people here so it was best way (probably more effective than our police report) to find out info on the situation. Ok Gene, call me and all is forgiven. lol

Nice to see you haven't lost your sense of humor in all of this mess E ..between being defrauded and being accused of being juvenile and unprofessional by fellow members is just :thumbsdown: IMO. I've seen many a few members blow up and act 100x worse over much less......


either way...like I said, I will definitely keep my eyes and ears out for a 535i with an RPI exhaust....


perhaps the existing 535i/xi RPI exhaust so cal owners wouldn't mind checking in so we know who legitimately has one.....

Wow, Great job Rudy.

You know what would be good justice? He installs it and realizes he orders the wrong one, get's it modified to fit, then gets pulled over regularly because it's too loud.
